The day was dominated by a fatal accident on the A59, where two people died in a collision at the tail of a traffic jam caused by farmers' tractors heading to a protest in Den Bosch. The incident, which occurred in the morning, shifted the focus of the farmers' protest against permit revocations, with organizers urging farmers to avoid highways and the government calling such protests 'bloodlink'. Throughout the day, media covered the aftermath, including political reactions and the police's role. Meanwhile, the CPB's report on purchasing power offered some relief to the cabinet, though critics blamed government choices. Other stories included the ongoing drought and heatwave, with reports on tropical nights and river cruise disruptions, and international news such as Trump's claim over the Strait of Hormuz and European wildfires.
